SIPROTEC 6MU85

The SIPROTEC 6MU85 merging unit is designed for conventional and non-conventional instrument transformers (LPITs). 

It is the modular, interoperable and powerful solution between primary and secondary technology – performing versatile process data acquisition, autonomous automation, and secure communication. It also digitalizes all primary data close to the process.

Basic Features

  • Extended temperature range for rough ambient conditions (-40 ºC to 70 ºC)

  • IEC 61850-8-1 GOOSE, MMS and merging unit protocol on the same Ethernet module
  • Sample and date/time synchronization via IEEE 1588v2/PTP
  • Redundant power supply
  • Reliable and redundant data transmission via PRP protocol
  • Control with switchgear interlocking
  • Circuit-breaker failure protection (50BF)
  • Circuit-breaker wear monitoring
  • Point-on-wave switching (POW)
  • Trip-circuit supervision (74TC)
  • Automatic reclosing (79)
  • Synchrocheck (25)
  • Non-directional (50/51, 50N/51N) and directional (67/67N) overcurrent protection
  • Overvoltage and undervoltage protection (27/59) 
  • Phasor measurement unit (PMU) for synchrophasor measured values and IEEE C37.118 protocol
  • Arc protection
